Whether you're thinking of a good appetizer or for a dish or it can also be a side dish.

This recipe which I've discovered few weeks ago because my brother ordered a small food tray with this kind of seasoning.

And it's super duper delicious.

So let's make it now, let's make Adobong Tahong.

Okay, so this is super duper easy to prepare.

You can see my ingredients here.

Just so simple.

First, I have a Tahong and just to be safe.

The Tahong that I'm buying is the New Zealand Mussels, the frozen.

So there, it's boxed and you're gonna remove the shells, just as simple as that.

So here it is, I already remove the shells and I'm gonna saute it.

I'm already heating my all-purpose pot.

So you just put your oil and your butter.

I will put a bit of butter on it.

You can also use margarine if you want.

And then into this, I'm going to saute some garlic.

You just brown your garlic a bit.

Just until light brown and then you put your onions.

A lot of onions.

And if you want it spicy, which I do.

I like it with a lot of chilies.

You put it together with the saute so that the spiciness would reach far.

And then, I'm gonna saute our Tahong together.

This is around a kilo with the shells.

Around 3-5 minutes, just to be sure that the Tahong is fully cooked.

Although, this can be bought in a boxed Tahong.

Do we have the box?

Let's show them.

So here, you can buy this from the supermarket.

I'm not promoting this, okay?

As much as possible, let's use a local Tahong.

But of course, for accessibility.

It's just quicker to get this from the supermarket.

And of course, you're more safe from-

You know it already, right?

That your pot would be broken because this is actually cooked already.

Let me check.

I guess it's half cooked.

But if it's half cooked or cooked, you still cook it just to be very sure.

So there.

We cook it together with our saute.

And you just put your soy sauce.

Okay, in vinegar, you can just use ordinary vinegar.

And a little bit of oyster sauce.

I won't put this as none, okay?

Because we are just putting this for the taste.

I also have here some spring onions.

I put half.

Simmer it for couple of minutes so that the taste would stick.

And then let's finish it by putting around half a cup of grated easy melting cheese.

You may put cheese, you may not put it.

It's up to you.

But in order of my sister, there's cheese.

So that's what I like so I'm imitating it today.

So there.

When the cheese melts, turn off the flame.

If you want it thicker, you may simmer it for a bit more.

I will turn off the flame already.

I'm going to put more toasted garlic.

You may sizzle this if you want.

When I tested the recipe, I sizzled it.

But the all-purpose pot stays warm even up to 20 minutes.

It's still warm so you may just leave it there.

More toasted garlic.

And more spring onions.

Don't put chili anymore, okay?

It's already spicy.

You may not be able to eat spicy food anymore.

So there you have your Adobong Tahong.

Cheesy Adobong Tahong.

Sizzling Adobong Tahong.

You may call me whatever you want to call me.

Let's taste it.

Okay, the best part.

I'm gonna taste it already.

Look at the sauce.

Actually, this is also good as a dish

or a tip, it's also good with pasta.

You just toss your pasta.

I'll taste the sauce first.

Ah!

The spiciness is there and I love that you can really taste the Filipino flavors that we put on it.

Super duper yum.

And with the spring onion.

Mmm...

Until the inside of the spring onion, it's really tasty.

It's super duper good.

I love it.

Normally, I don't finish what's on my plate

because I'm jet-lagged but this one, it's so good.

Mmm...

I already sweat on the spiciness

but this is the sweat that's delicious.

This is the feeling that you're sweating but it's delicious.

That's what I'm rephrasing, okay?

So what are you waiting for?

Make this Adobong Tahong already.

Cheesy Adobong Tahong and I'm going to see you all soon.
